"This is a tasting set from 2022 where we had a lot of fun around the table. The most amazing thing about this rum is the peat notes in there. Lightly fruity and nice smoky wood with good ABV integration. The empty glass is amazing and has some chocolate."

"Sehr sehr stark Whisky geprägt. Ist schon aufdringlich, kein daily Sipper. Trotzdem für den passenden Anlass ein perfekter Rum: Der Zigarrenfreund freut sich nämlich und raucht dazu eine Balmoral XO, die beiden zusammen ergeben ein super Team"
